Santa's Little Helper (2015)

Very best movie i ever watch

That was an excellent one.

Instant Favorite.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

After getting fired from his job, a fast-talking businessman is thrown into an elf competition to become Santa¹s next second-in-command. Put through a series of rigorous training exercises to prepare for the contest, he must face another aspiring elf in the hopes of becoming Santa¹s Little Helper. Santa's Little Helper might perhaps be one of the worst Christmas movies i have ever seen in my entire life. I mean it makes Jingle All The Way 2 look like The Godfather in front of the cheesy, over the top and just quite stupid movie that WWE chose to make. (F)

Dax the Ax (Mike "the Miz") has just foreclosed on the Hope Springs Youth Center in Santa Monica...perhaps a pun intended. In an act of irony, Dax the Ax gets the ax at work and must leave his house in an unrealistic time frame. In a subplot, Santa's Little Helper retires and he must fill the position. He wants to give the job to Dax the Ax, a "normie" (muggle already taken) who he believes has the qualities to do the job...deep down. He tasks Billy (AnnaLynne McCord) a round eared mutant elf to test his qualities for the position. Meanwhile Eleanor (Saraya-Jade Bevis/ Paige) believes she deserves the job because her father had the job. She is portrayed as being a mean person complete with a British accent. Her role is minimal.If you have ever seen a film before, you have a good idea how this ends up. The path is slightly less predictable. The film is for kids. There is a bar room fight, although no one really gets hurt, but fists and objects fly. Certainly not worse than a Three Stooges episode. There is the use of the word "freakin'" as a substitute for a cuss word. Otherwise very kid friendly. AnnaLynne McCord provides eye candy for dad, and The Miz takes off his shirt for mom.Not a bad film. Don't expect it to be an annual iconic classic.

Santa's Little Helper uncovers the seedier side of working at the North Pole. While it is expected to be a place of working together in love and harmony to bring joy to children around the world, this film shows what Santa doesn't want us to see. Paige as Eleanor gave us a clear look at how working at the North Pole has become competitive and political. And, in case you were thinking that's just the bad guys, this showed 'the good guys' (Santa and Mrs. Claus with their darling chosen misfit and the other elite staff), cheering Dax in fighting dirty as well, then kicked out Eleanor for unsportsmanlike conduct. Clearly, they only saw infractions to the rules when it suited them. Oh, and if you're looking for a family movie little kids can enjoy without supervision, what would it be without a wrestler lying around and welcoming people into his home wearing just his gonch? My mistake, he did have a robe covering his shoulders. Dax'es character arch didn't seem sufficient to me to get the job--he needed continued training before locking that in. However, he did show his selflessness in using magic to return a swindler wearing only Speedos to stand in front of a crowd of teens to be brought to justice and save the community centre.I was working my way through many Netflix Christmas romance movies trying to catch some Christmas spirit. Soon, I found I was looking for which movie would be the actual worst one on there. I almost went with anything with Haylie Duff in it, but then I came across two that topped her. Santa's Little Helper did not take the trophy, but came in as a close second. The winner was Small Town Santa starring Dean Cain. The highlight of that one was the decal on the back of his computer, "Real heroes don't wear capes." I'm sure there are others worse than this, but I lost my motivation to find it.

There are a lot of negatives you could bring up about this movie; it's cheesy, the acting and plot are questionable, it drags in the middle, and the humour is way too basic. However it does qualify as a reasonably good Christmas movie and since that is what it is supposed to be then you can generally ignore most of those points.There is a little something for everyone and it is certainly a tale about heavy-handed morals centred around the season of giving. Yes, you could watch Die Hard at Christmas if you are a twenty-something hipster with no children like me, but if you have a family and 'traditional values', then this is a pretty fun watch for kids and grown ups alike. The only thing that might put some people off is the small amount of male-female violence that is present, as well as the assertion that men and women should be treated equally both physically and mentally. Personally I think that makes this film stand out, but it might offend some others (although a lot of the positive steps the film takes in this area is undercut by the lead female character being so taken aback by the main's insistence that she is pretty, because you know, that is all women want out of life.)Overall this is just a fun Christmas movie that can be enjoyed by families and wrestling fans, and if you are both then you will probably love it. If you are neither then it has some kitsch value but nothing too great, just watch and enjoy as some holiday filler.
